This book tells the story of Ada, a young girl with a clubfoot who has never been outside her small London apartment. When World War II begins, children are evacuated from the city. Ada secretly teaches herself to walk and escapes with her younger brother, Jamie. They are sent to the countryside and taken in by a kind but initially reluctant woman named Susan. Ada learns to ride a pony, goes to school, and slowly discovers what it means to be loved and to have a real home, all while the war rages on.
